“…when building thinking classrooms, makes a jump from math to cross curricular to language arts, social studies, science and so on We see that a conversation is actually a really powerful way to close a lesson, especially in the humanities.” @peterliljedahl.bsky.social @mikeflynn55.bsky.social

Sometimes you stand on the furniture when creating a Thinking Classroom with a room full of families! #theanswersare #buildingthinkingclassrooms #iteachmath As Peter says, “The furniture moves.” But sometimes there’s no where for it to go! 🤣

First day of @innovamat.bsky.social PK-4 today! A few things I heard… “It aimed high from the start!” “It was easier to follow than I expected” “Do you think I can BTC the Challenge lessons?” “What’s a Magic Pad?” 🤣 “I decided to…” “I decided to…” Love that it honors teacher expertise!

11yo daughter: CAN I SLEEP WITH THIS!!? 😆🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 @mathforlove.bsky.social #iteachmath

Hey #iteachmath community... I need help. Tell me about the progression from proportional to nonproportional unit representations, specifically moving from lower grades to upper elementary grades. When is it appropriate to begin using models like place value discs? Research to support? Thanks!

Thanks for being the BEST emcees!!!

So much incredible thinking and math discussion at the #btcc25

More photos of the wonderful people who made #BTCC25 such a wonderful week. @amandaray @tbrzezinski.bsky.social @novakatz.bsky.social @heidisabnani.bsky.social

What an amazing finish to #BTCC25. @peterliljedahl.bsky.social gave an excellent keynote, and the attendees were willing to interact with @cfless.bsky.social and me as we emceed. So grateful for this experience, and can’t wait to see everyone next year in Connecticut for #BTCC26!

I want to make "Math Mistakes" a monthly theme in the Math Corner. Help me brainstorm activities that K-4 students could engage in independently. My Favorite No? #iteachmath #elemmath #mathed #mtbos

How fun is this!? Love it when we work together to create rich math experiences for students! Thanks for sharing @theericklee.bsky.social ! pbbmath.weebly.com/blog/the-lef... #iteachmath #mtbos #pizzamath

12 year old son is asking: The distance between zero and Infiniti is infinity, right? So What is the distance between negative infinity and infinity? Thoughts? #iteachmath #tmwyk #noticeandwonder

This is so fab! And so true! 🤣🤣😫

ChatGPT hasn't quite figured out how to create a valid chart. *sigh*

This right here. Yes!!! @nctm.org

*Teachers are incredible humans.* That is all. Go buy a teacher a gift. A little one. A cup of coffee. A card. Just MAKE a card even. Do something nice for a teacher RIGHT NOW. #iteachmath #teachersarerockstars #teachers #gratitude

Thanks to my social media manager for this highlight reel of yesterday’s conference presentation! @mrsriesedu.bsky.social *Building concrete visual patterns… one block at a time!!* Want to learn more? Ready for me to come to your school? Reach out!

I LOVE mapping and don’t think of doing it more often to solve problems in my day to day. Grateful for the reminder and has a blast with this design challenge! Thanks Gitane! #Learning2 #Learning2Basel

The look on the passport controller face when she asks me the reason for my visit… “A math conference for teachers, using Lego bricks!” “Ah?? Like, the ones children play with?” 😆 yep! #iteachmath #legoeducation

Love our students responses to the question, “What jobs use measurement?” 🤩🥰 #iteachmath #tmwyk #mathcorner #publicmath

First week of fractions on grade 4 and this student who struggles with confidence shared how she sees 7/8 (top of the board). Epic! What questions would you ask to address her misconception in the bottom?

“A meal of only explicit instruction in procedures is not a well-rounded mathematical diet, depriving students of the opportunity to solve complex, authentic problems.” One of my fave quotes from @mathematize4all.bsky.social ‘s Rethinking Disability in Mathematics!

I think the theme of all future math conferences should be, “new year, same fight.” No? 🤣🤣🤣 #cynical #iteachmath #themythofnewmath #mathisntnew #vivalarevolution @mathematize4all.bsky.social

Charty Party was a hit last night!!! Endless laughs! We rarely actually play the game and just take turns flipping a white card and each outing down (in)appropriate orange cards! 😆 #chartyparty @veryspecialgames.bsky.social

Should be a good one! I’m signed up!

Can't wait to see what magic sparks from this incredible partnership!! 🪄✨💫 Woop woop! We start our pilot soon and looking forward to seeing how Innovamat works in BTC & non-BTC classrooms alike. Stay tuned! #buildingthinkingclassrooms #iteachmath

Student went from hating math & being "bored" to LOVING math this year. Me: What's your favorite thing about math this year? Student: Working in groups! Turns out she looooves BTC! #buildingthinkingclassrooms #iteachmath
